Free things to do in London

London's best museums, galleries and parks — none of which charge admission.

Almost every national museum and gallery in London is free, thanks to a Treasury subsidy that survives every parliament. Add Royal Parks, the City churches, the Greenwich foot tunnel and a thousand quiet corners — and you have weeks of London for the price of a Tube ticket.
